A comparative review of impact-induced failure mechanisms in monolithic and hybrid structures

Key Points

• Monolithic structures show different failure mechanisms compared to hybrid structures, revealing critical insights for safety.
• The review highlights how different structural designs respond to impacts, indicating varying structural integrity outcomes.
• Comparative analysis on failure mechanisms enhances understanding of material performance under stress.
• This study calls for improved design strategies in engineering to mitigate impact-induced failures, particularly in hybrid structures.
